Voted the best italian thin crust Pizza in MTL. It's small so I would reserve in advance. (If it's closed, try Vesta, or Gema pizzeria...they're also very good.)

MUST TASTE: Order a slice of the famous "Kouing Amann" pastry. (It's basically a caramelized croissant). Check open hours before going, and arrive early, they sell out. (You can call ahead to see if they're sold out, and reserve some) WORTH the TRIP! (Mont Royale)
